The Serpent Deities (Nagas)

sarpa stotram

(Sarpa Stotram in English (IAST))

Traditional

The Sarpa Stotram is a sacred invocation dedicated to the divine serpent deities residing in the various realms of existence, including Brahmaloka, Vishnuloka, and Rudraloka. By honoring legendary figures such as Sheshanaga and Vasuki, this stotra seeks to appease the cosmic forces of the serpent realm. Chanting this prayer is believed to neutralize the negative influences of snake-related karmic afflictions, such as Sarpa Dosha or Kala Sarpa Dosha. Devotees recite these verses to invoke divine protection, ensure peace, and mitigate fears, fostering a harmonious relationship with the natural world and spiritual forces alike.
